The cabin was relatively clean on the surface, but the property itself is in disrepair. The shower has visible black mold, and the floor is clearly warping with insulation and daylight visible in the living room. The view of the lake is lovely, however the area is very weedy. Not ideal for swimming activities and difficult to reel a fishing line through.

- Floor in the living room was quite literally falling away, the floor was 3 inches lower than the wall. A few spots you could see right outside.- The shower looked to have mold on the bottom.- The toilet was loose on the floor alone with the floor and tile moving. - The bed sheets were dirty so we had to go buy our own. - The kitchen was pretty nice for what everything else turned out to be.

Stayed there on the weekend of June 19th. Cabin floor in kitchen is not what is in the picture. It is actually dirty linoleum with cuts in it. There is a gap between the living room wall and floor that allows ants to come right inside. Spider webs through out cabin. No sheets were provided for futon. Chair pictured in living room was not there. Shower had mold in it. Bathroom door doesn’t shut due to cabin being unlevel. Garbage can looks like it has seen better days. They had the only shore area that had rotting fish on it. Very odd that this cabin is allowed to be rented. We have stayed in lots of cabins and this is the first one we ever left a bad review. Would not recommend.

Great place for quiet weekend getaway

Neat little cabin right on the water. Although most of activities were closed for off-season, we were close enough to all of the attractions in the area for hikes. Property was perfect size for us for a sibling weekend away from home.

Beefarama Getaway!

Had a great stay at the cabin for Beefarama weekend! Location was great and cabin was cozy and clean! Highly recommend walking across the street and grabbing a pizza at Monicals! Loved seeing eagles and hearing loons on the lake each morning. Very quiet even though close to the highway!

Cute cabin

Cabin was cute and the view of the lake was beautiful. Lake is small and wasn’t busy as we were there midweek. Great communication with Josh. Kudos to Angie as she was extremely helpful and arrived quickly when the internet went out due to a storm. Enjoyed our mini vacation there very much.

Vacation

Location was perfect for what we needed, but the bed was only a double so it will only accommodate an average to small person/couple. The cabin is quite small, but it was updated.

Small cabin, as expected from the listing. Living Room was simply a futon and bed was a full size - thought it was a queen size from photos, so calling out for awareness. Shore was very much weeds with short piers - definitely not a swimming friendly location. We went to Torpy Park to swim since it was so close. Property was close to Minocqua, so easy to get around.

Loved it!

We fell in love with this place before we even walked in the door. The bed was comfy the kitchen was wonderful and clean and even though we didn't cook anything we know next time we will. Only thing we didn't care for was the wobbly toilet. Other than that it was perfect for a little getaway. Thank you!

Great Location

We had a brief stay of two nights. It's a cozy place as described, and was relatively quiet despite being close to the highway. GPS had trouble locating things in that area. The double entrance driveway is actually slightly north of Monical's Restaurant. Look for the host's blue sign. The host responded quickly to a minor question we had.

A week of R&R

My husband & I come up to the Northwoods for a week in February, usually to do some snowmobiling, but this year was a crazy year for snow!! But we decided to come & just do some much needed relaxing & ice fishing. When we arrived at the cabin, there were a few issues that I called & talked to Josh about, and he was more than accommodating & addressed the issues immediately. We had a great time & the place was great!! It's perfect for 2 people, awesome views of the lake & the eagles were flying on the lake pretty much every day!!! Would definitely recommend Josh as a host!! Plus he has other properties as well!!!

Nice little getaway

Cute little cabin. It was perfect for what we needed. We we needed a place to stay for a weekend getaway and It was better than staying in a hotel for about the same price. It is nicely updated for a very old cabin. The water is right outside your door. If the weather was not so chilly and rainy we would have definitely tried the fishing. The shore is very shallow but we did see fish hitting the surface, the morning we were leaving. Definitely made us want to do some fishing. It wasn't big enough for much more than the two of us but the futon sofa in the living room, looked comfortable enough for another guest to stay Very close to neighbors. Pizza place across the street was delicious. We went to the beer brewery two miles down the road and watched the game. This was fun. Then next night we drove 17 min to the casino for the seafood buffet and some gambling. This was. We won a little so that was not disappointing 😉

Hide and Seek - I hate that

It was very hard to find the correct way into the property and the site description was way less than accurate. Even when I called Josh I got the same silly description. It would have been easy enough to say, "If arriving from the north, watch for the Burger Barn, stay in the right lane and take the first driveway just south of the BB. It is a two ended driveway which dives down hill on both ends when leaving the road and it is nearly impossible to turn into the further south end as it very narrow and angles almost parallel to the highway with 30 mph traffic and double lane plus a third lane for turns. The house number is not visible until you are in front of it at which point you are already in the driveway and 100 feet from where you turn in. Even if approaching from the south, unless you knew it was there. you have to turn across two lanes of traffic and thread the needle to get in from that end. Luckily it was still daylight when I arrived. PS Google maps are no help because lack of mailboxes or house numbers. Over all I enjoyed the lake and the cozy little place but didn't need the anxiety of finding it with no accurate information.

About the host

Hosted by Joshua

Host profile image
I’m a local business owner and real estate investor who loves the Northwoods. I’ve spent much of my career in hospitality, so creating a comfortable, clean and enjoyable experience for guests is important to me. I’m always happy to help with questions or local recommendations during your stay.

Why they chose this property

I love this location because you get the Northwoods lake experience while still being incredibly close to everything. The cabin sits directly on Brandy Lake, yet restaurants, shopping, groceries and other Minocqua-area attractions are just minutes away. It’s a great combination of lakefront relaxation and convenience.

What makes this property unique

This cozy, updated cabin sits just steps from Brandy Lake and packs a lot into a small space. Guests have private lake frontage and a dock, plus use of a 14’ Alumacraft fishing boat. Brandy Lake is a 113-acre full-rec lake with excellent fishing, and wildlife including bald eagles, deer and loons is commonly seen around the property. Best of all, you can enjoy a true Northwoods lake getaway without being far from everything Minocqua has to offer.
